Our meetings are archaic. |
We never get that 'golden nugget' . |
There's no action, no change. |
It’s calculated that at the top level, just on basic salaries alone, a three hour meeting can cost £1,872 or more. Factor in lost opportunity costs when no decisions are taken, remedial costs when a bad decision is taken and the total outlay is considerably higher. It's estimated that people spend 50% of their time in meetings whilst 67% of Executives consider them to be a waste of time. Its's no wonder that companies report meeting fatigue.

The Problem
You've heard the complaints. There's too many meetings, they go on for too long and have no focus, they're unproductive, the paperwork is overwhelming or too late, hidden agendas subvert decision making.
~ "It's a waste of time attending and I can't wait to get out of there. There's no focus and either no decision is taken or it's a poorly thought through decision." ~ "The agenda is too packed, we don't get a chance to really interrogate the data and the chairing is poor. " ~ "It's always the same people speaking and I never get a chance to put my point of view." ~ "I come up with an idea to improve things but they're never followed through". |
